CRISPR-mediated interference (CRISPRi), a robust and specific system for programmably repressing transcription, provides a versatile tool for systematically characterizing the function of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). When used with highly parallel, lentiviral pooled screening approaches, CRISPRi enables the targeted knockdown of tens of thousands of lncRNA-expressing loci in a single screen. Here we describe the use of CRISPRi to target lncRNA loci in a pooled screen, using cell growth and proliferation as an example of a phenotypic readout. Considerations for custom lncRNA-targeting libraries, alternative phenotypic readouts, and orthogonal validation approaches are also discussed.
